What reading level is The Cider House Rules book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Neal Dow once ran for the presidency as the candidate of the Prohibition Party, but he won barely ten thousand votes—proving that the general voter was wiser than Wilbur Larch’s mother, who worshiped her employer and saw herself more as his co-worker for temperance reform than as his servant (which she was).
Interestingly, Wilbur Larch’s father was a drunk—no small feat in the Portland of Mayor Dow’s day. It was permitted to advertise beer in the shop windows—Scotch ale and bitter beer, which Wi...lbur Larch’s father consumed copiously; it was necessary, he claimed, to drink these weak brews by the bucketful in order to get a buzz on. To young Wilbur, his father never looked drunk—he never staggered or fell or lay in a stupor, he never shouted or slurred his speech. Rather, he had about him the appearance of one perpetually surprised, of one given to frequent and sudden revelations that would stop him in his tracks, or in midsentence, as if something had just come to him (or had just escaped him) that had preoccupied him for days.
